Which DC Bus is directly connected to the APU battery for direct power?

• A. DC APU Battery Direct Bus
• B. DC Main Battery Direct Bus
• C. DC Battery Bus
• D. DC Emergency Bus

Answer: (A)

Power from the APU battery is routed to its own dedicated DC bus—the DC APU Battery Direct Bus. This direct connection ensures immediate DC power for APU-related circuits and essential loads whenever the APU battery is supplying power, such as during APU start or when other power sources aren’t available. The main battery has its own direct bus, separate from this one, so it doesn’t feed the APU battery directly. The emergency bus is a separate path designed to keep critical systems powered under failure conditions. In short, the APU Battery Direct Bus is the line that connects the APU’s battery straight to the DC loads it serves.
